How long is the shelf life of honey

How long is the shelf life of honey? I believe that many people have such an experience, buy a bottle of honey, think of the time to take a spoonful of punch a little honey water to drink, but often can not adhere to, a long time, honey accidentally expired. I remind you that the shelf life of honey is generally in about two years.

1, many people have this question in mind, honey even after two years of shelf life, but the traits do not seem to change, is not the expiration date of the honey can eat? Research has proved that honey has a strong antibacterial ability, is the world's only food will not be corrupted, but there is a very important prerequisite, that is, the honey must be really mature pure honey.

2, the market sale of honey in nine out of ten is mixed with other substances, such as sugar, water or other substances, after the shelf life, such honey will generally fermentation, bubbling, acid, deterioration, is absolutely not edible.

3, if the fermentation is not serious, after about 60 ° C water bath heating half an hour, can still eat, but the nutritional value has been reduced.

4, even if it is just bought honey, once opened, we must do a good job of preservation, honey should be placed in the cool, in the dry, ventilated, clean and odorless place, and to seal, in order to prevent the absorption of moisture in the air after crystallization and fermentation.
